Tax Reductions
ATLANTA, June 28—(AP)—
The taxpayer has a friend in court.
Georgia’s emergency taxes of
some $20,000,000 a year on beer,
wine, tobacco, and gasoline expire
at midnight June 30.
The Office of Price Stabilization
has reminded merchants the tax
reductions must be passed on to
consumers.
All of the products involved in
the July 1 tax-lifting are covered
by the OPS general ceiling price
regulation, which prohibits prices
from going beyond the highest
point reached between Dec. 19,
1950 and Jan. 25, 1951,
Said James F. Hollingsworth,
OPS district director:
“This is a friendly notice to re
| tailers that their prices must be re
duced by amount of tax elimina
ted on Juty 1. The tax was figured
in when the ceiling price was ar
rived at so naturally any reduction
in the tax must be passed on to
the consumer. I feel certain that
the OPS will have the cooperation
of the merchants in the Atlanta

district, since we believe that they
will welcome the opportunity to
offer their goods at slightly less
inflationary prices,
“However, there may be a few
retailers who would seek to widen
their margin of profit by neglect
ing to pass the tax reduction along
to their patrons. We are asking
customers of those places to re
port to us promptly, since the
proprietors will be clearly in vio
lation of the ceiling price regula
tion.”
In North Georgia the greatest
damage to cotton right now is
from thrips. “Use either Toxa
phene or a BHC-DDT mixture to
control them,” advises E. C West
brook, Extension agronomist.
The first of six District Pro
ject Achievement meetings for
4-H members will get underway
in Athens June 25. At these meet
ings district winners are chosen to
compete for state titles at the
State 4-H Congress later in At
lanta.

The
ROTARY WHEEL
by SAM WOODS j
The local Rotary Club gavel
swapped hands at Wednesday’s
luncheon when retiring President
Moon Corker presented it to in
coming President Ralph Snow.
Following the presentation of
i the Past President emblem to Mr.
Corker, Mr. Snow came up with
one of the best Rotary convention
reports ever heard by the local
club; he related his experience at
th Atlantic City Convention of Ro
tary International and spoke brief
ly on the incoming officers of Ro
tary International.
Mr. Snow
Mr. Snow, owner of Snow Tire
Company hers, has made rapid
business success since coming to
Athens several years ago to work
with a local tire company. He
opened his own business in 1945
| and sat the present time president
| and treasurer of Snow Tire Com
pany and vice president and treas
urer of the newly organized
Southeastern Rubber Company. A
past president of Athens Chamber
of Commerce, he is now serving as
vice-president of the local fair as
‘ sociation. A member of First Bap
tist Church, he is also a Mason.
I Mr. Snow is married to the for
mer Miss Louise Hencely of Jack
son, Georgia, and they have three
children, Harriet, Ralph, jr., and
Kathy.
Other officers who will serve
with President Snow during the
coming year are Clarence Chand
ler, secretary and treasurer and
Dink Martin, sergeant-at-arms;
Directors are Edsel Penson, Rich
ard Bloodworth, Harvey Cabaniss,
Phil Campbell, jr., Moon Corker,
Paul Chapman, Howell Erwin, jr.,
Abit Nix, D. D. Quillian and Ralph
Snow.
Committees
Heading committees in the in
coming administration are Ralph
Snow, Aims and Objects; Richard
Bloodworth, Vocational; John
Thurmond, Club; Edsel Benson,
Community; and Howell Erwin,
jr., International. Quarterly chair
men will be appointed to arrange
programs for the coming year.
Despite the fact that Moon
Corker is a “Rambling Wreck”
from Georgia Tech, our Athens
crowd named him president of the
club last year, and the rewards
reaped there from by the local
I club have been excellent under
l his leadership.
Mr. Corker
Born at Dublin, Mr. Corker re
ceived his higher education at
Georgia Tech where he was
awarded a B. S. degree. Most of
his business life aftex college days
has been with Georgia Theater
Company in Atlanta, Macon and
Gainesville. He came to Athens in
June, 1937 and is now division
manager for the theater organiza
tion. Married to the former Miss
Thayer Hocper of Dalton, Mr.
Corker has three children, Frank,
Thayer and Cecelia.
Mr. Corker served as a Colonel
in the Infantry during World War
11, seeing service in France, Ger-

Jury Says Landys -
Not Guilty Of
MINEOLA, N. Y., June 28 —
(AP)—A Nassau County jury de
cidedcided yesterday that neither
millionaire Murray Landy nor his
blonde wife, Isabel, was guilty of
adultery, and its verdict denied
divorces to both of them.
After deliberating two hours
and 35 minutes the jury of five
men and seven women returned
the following verdict:
Mrs. Landy, 33, did not commit
adultery with magazine illustrator
Arthur Sarnoff in her HoteleOgle
thorpe room in Savannah, Ga., last
March.
Landy, 44, a retired paper man
ufacturer, did not commit adultery
with an unidentified platinum
blonde in Miami Beach in Decem
ber, 1948.
Husband and wife had filed the
charges against one another, and
each had requested a divorce.
Missing Airman
In Bainbridge
BIRMINGHAM, June 28—(AP)
—Lt. Alfred D. Blue, Air Force of
ficer who disappeared the night of
June 18, has been found at Bain
bridge, Ga. His ariomobile was
found, too.
Sheriff A. E. White, Bainbridge,
said he released the 28-year-old
airman “to his family” at 7 a. m.
today. “They were going back to
Bessemer, Ala.” the Sheriff said.
The Lieutenant, 1945 West Point
graduate and fighter plane pilot,
was found last night at a tourist
court two miles from Bainbridge.
Bainbridge Police Chief R. T.
Humphrey said the airman was
alone at the time, and was unhurt.
Sheriff White said he kept Lt.
Blue “in my custody some five or
six hours.” The police chief said
the sheriff picked up Lt. Biue “on
authority of his father.”
Lt. Blue has been the object of
a widespread search since he left
his wife and two children at the
home of his father, Dr. J. H. Blue,
Bessemer, the night of June 18.
He got behind the wheel of his
two-toned tan sedan (Mercury)
and drove off, ostensibly to return
to his base at Keesler Field, Biloxi,
Miss., where he was enrolled in an
electronics school.
Th lieutenant reportedly cashed
a SIOO check at a Montgomery
bank the next morning. He had
been scheduled to return to his
classes at Keesler Field that morn
ing also, but he did not show up.

Recreafion Park Among Many '
Porjects Planned At Colbert -
COLBERT, Ga., June 28-—Visi
tors and tourists travelling down
Highway 72 between Athens and
Elberton may hardly notice when
they pass through Colbert now,
but that . condition will certainly
not be true long,
The committee on Clean-up,
Beautification and Town Improve
ment is quite busy at the present
time completing plans for a real
face-lifting of the town.
Already merchants and proper
ty owners may be seen any day
with paint bucket and brush in
hand climbing atop a ladder to
make their property more attrac
tive and the town in general a
neater, cleaner place, by applying
a tresh coat of paint.
The results of these labors are
slowly but surely bringing a fresh
look to the town and when all the
people who have so indicated on
a recent town survey, paint and
clean up -their property, visitors
will really notice Colbert.
This “Town Improvement”
really began months ago when the
Colbert Woman’s Club backed up
by the Mayor and Town Council,
entered the Georgia Power and
Kroger Contests which are de
signed to make the town a better
town and in turn make Georgia a
better state.
The committee appointed to
look after Clean-up, Beautifica
tion and Town Improvement is
under the direction of J. K.
Brookshire and Mrs. T. W. Por
terfield. Other members of the
group are: Mrs. H. J. Arrendale,
Mrs. C. W. Porterfield, Mrs. W. T.
Benton, Mrs. J. A. Hitchcock,
Mrs. Roscoe Morris, Mrs. S. N.
Benton, Mr. Whelchel, Mr. B. T.
Hardman, Mrs. Grady King, Mrs
Susie Childers, Mrs. H. C. Hard
man and Mrs. Weyman Power.
Plan Recreation Park
Right now the group is working
on plans for making the entrances
of the town more inviting. Work
will be done shortly on railroad
and highway property. W. T. Ben
ton is having signs mgde to be
used at the entrances of the town
to identify it and to welcome
strangers. Another project is for
a recreation park with benches
and tables on the side of the road
where a wayfarer passing through
might stop under the cooling shade

Also, each street in town has a
Street Captain who is contacting
the citizens on his street to help
them with plans for improvement,
It is felt that this will develop a
sense of friendly rivalry between
the streets that will result in
everyone working harder. Other
projects are also under way by
this committee . which will be
brought out a little later.
